Objective To screen items of the Clinical Aided Decision Scheme for Stroke Simultaneous Treatment of Disease,Pulse and Syndrome;To provide reference for the formulation and improvement of the scheme.Methods The Delphi method was used to distribute two rounds of questionnaires to 60 experts in cerebropathy or neurology across the country.Statistical analysis was performed on the questionnaire results of the scheme's items,including the disease names,etiology and pathogenesis,syndrome characteristics,rules and regulations,representative prescriptions,acupuncture and other therapies,and preventive care.Results Totally 42 and 50 valid questionnaires were collected.The experts reached the consensus for the importance of etiology and pathogenesis,rules and regulations,acupuncture and other therapies,and preventive care.In the section on syndrome characteristics,items with low relevance or causing ambiguity were removed.Items that were no longer used in modern times and different prescriptions with the same name were removed from the representative prescriptions.The names of syndromes,rules and regulations were unified.Conclusion The experts generally reached the consensus for the importance of the Clinical Aided Decision Scheme for Stroke Simultaneous Treatment of Disease,Pulse and Syndrome.However,there are still some limitations that require further study and discussion.

Cerebral hemorrhage accounts for about 10%-15% of all strokes, and its pathogenesis is complex. Currently, the main clinical treatment is mainly medical symptomatic treatment, including the use of antihypertensive drugs, hypoglycemic drugs, and hemostatic drugs, and surgical treatment is required in some cases, but there is still a lack of effective treatment. In recent years, traditional Chinese medicine and proprietary Chinese medicine have been widely accepted for their stable efficacy, high safety, and low cost. Rhei Radix et Rhizoma is one of the most commonly used herbal medicines for the treatment of cerebral hemorrhage. This paper summarizes the relevant literature on the treatment of cerebral hemorrhage with Rhei Radix et Rhizoma and finds that its active ingredients are mainly anthraquinones, such as emodin, Rhei Radix et Rhizoma acid, and Rhei Radix et Rhizoma phenol. The herbal formulas are Da Chengqitang, Shengdi Dahuangtang, Liangxue Tongyufang, and Naoxueshu oral liquid. The effects involve protecting the blood-brain barrier, promoting hematoma absorption, reducing inflammation levels, decreasing lactic acid accumulation at the bleeding site, and increasing the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factors. The pathways involved include aquaporin 4 (AQP4), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt), extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), nuclear transcription factor-κB (NF-κB), nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), and Wnt3a/β-linked protein pathway. This paper summarizes the progress of clinical studies and animal experiments on the treatment of cerebral hemorrhage with active ingredients of Rhei Radix et Rhizoma and herbal compounds containing Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, so as to provide a reference for the treatment protocol of cerebral hemorrhage.
